According to the Mayo Clinic, mental health is our overall wellness in terms of how we think, and regulate our feelings and behaviours. When people experience a significant disturbance in the way they function, psychologically they may be suffering from poor mental health.

What many do not realize is that when we struggle without mental health it can have a notable knock-on effect in our aspects of out lives. Conditions such as depression, anxiety and chronic stress can damage us in more ways than simply mental anguish. This is why it is vital to pay close attention to our mental health.
